We thought the rooms and location of this hotel were great, nice views from our balcony over the sea.

Our friends were on a lower floor but that wasn't too much of a problem. Rooms and grounds were spotlessly clean.

Most of the staff were very friendly, reception staff a bit rude.

When we were staying at this hotel last year the majority of the guests had upset stomachs. My friend was ill for 3 days. The food was awful, we ate in the hotel twice in a week. The alcohol was all the same whether you wanted vodka, rum or whiskey..it is distilled in the same place with different labels on the bottles ( the tour guide informed us of this). If you want water before 9 am or after 11pm you have to pay, if you want ice cream you have to pay, if you want coffee in the main bar you have to pay!!

The Animation entertainment were terrible if you were Italian or Russian you will be able to understand them if not give them a wide berth... but be prepared to listen to the crocodillo song about 48 times a day!!! you will end up humming it!!

We took the coach tour to Cairo it was worth the journey, the guide we had was fantastic he really knew his stuff. The tour that he takes you on around the Egyptian museum is quite long winded but informative. We would definatly go back to Sharm but not to the Tropicana.

We stayed at the tropicana grand oasis in sharks bay,the hotel was very clean and overall very nice. The food was varied and there was plenty of choice. The location was a 20 minute taxi ride away from nama bay.
The staff needed a litle prompting with a tip,and then they could not do enough for you. The entertainment to be honnest was boring and gave it a miss on most of the nights.There was a distinct lack of ice cubes and diet coke,but both items were soon available after asking for them.There were also not enough sun umbrellas and if you were not up by 7am to put your towel down you have had it.But the best thing was the reef at the bottom of the hotel,the snorkling was out of this world and made the holiday!

tropicana grand oasis hotel, you could not fault cleanliness of hotel,staff very friendly, no problems really with food two week stay slightly repetative but certainly would not starve, would recommend usdollars and sterling very popular with much better rate given,excellent for early risers to put towels on sun bed, large number of italian and russian guests with entertainment geared toward them. soft drinks obtainable free after 11 am. gardens beautiful and very well maintained, would advise room away from main hotel as very noisy in the evenings. all in all a great holiday not to be forgotten

Hotel lovely, but very big and beach a good walk away which involves a hill, fine for the young ones but not so for older people.

Our room was down the beach end and a fantastic sea view however the trek back up to the main hotel was hard work.

Staff were fantastic and very pleasant, they appreciate conversations with polite friendly guests.

The entertainment was aimed at the Italians so not really enjoyable.

Food was disgusting, lived on soup and chips after Lorraine caught the dreaded stomach bug.

One tip is to buy your trips at the hotel beach as they are cheaper than the tour rep and you use the same companies.

The biggest thing we found with this hotel is that the AI has SO many limitations - the snack bar was non-existent in the fact it was only open for 1 hour a day and prior to 10am you could not have any drink (including soft drink)unless you got it from the main dining room which only offer tea/coffee and some really rather nasty juices, all of which left a rather yukky taste in the mouth!! Not even water was available until after 10 (unless you paid for it) - Hardly All Inclusive then is it?

Food was typically AI, i.e. repetative but other than that is was edible and some even quite nice.

Hotel staff werent great and certainly werent that bothered about helping you out - Entertainment...Not really much I can say to be honest other than it was rubbish!

We have just returned from the Tropicana Grand Oasis hotel in Sharm el Sheikh.

As a family we could not fault this hotel, it is kept beautifully clean by an army of non stop cleaners and all the staff are very pleasant, nothing is too much trouble and always with a smile.

The towel guys at the pool and beach in particular are very friendly always remembering your name and ready for a pleasant chat.

The food was pretty good overall (look out for the fantastic pasties and croissants) but there was always a bit of a scrum at meal times in the main restaurant; it was nicer to book and eat at the excellent Mamma Mia Italian or the Oriental restaurant (Much quieter).
